gas tank tool box and cage for datsun - Pacific-Crawlers Forum

83nismo · 07-27-2007, 07:15 PM

not sure if this is where i should put this but o well. Just thought I would see what you guys think here is the cage and tool box gas tank I'll be building for my truck this month.

ignore the brown.. and I'm thinking about making the cage a air tank for my a/c pump.

id ditch the low pressure feul pump and just use the high pressure. your gonna have issues with them. the high pressure will eventually burn out due to lack of feul from the low. but overall that looks good.

hmmm... was thinking high pressire wouldn't be able to supply the 90 p.s.i long enough fast enough so the low would help get it to it...?

83nismo · 08-10-2007, 10:08 PM

98nismo · 08-10-2007, 10:22 PM

83nismo · 08-10-2007, 10:23 PM

90psi?! wtf motor is gonna be in your truck? also you should make a low belly on the tank so you can actually suck more fuel up.

3800 seires obd II and if u look at the drawing u will see the low belly at the bottom of the tank.

tommy gun · 09-25-2007, 02:25 PM

you don't need the low pressure pump. and i would keep the electronics away from the fuel. it's an extended cab right. put that stuff behind your seats. you would still have room for stuff back there. just my 2 pennies.

83nismo · 09-25-2007, 05:04 PM

well these are going to be completly sealed compartments...i dont want any of that stuff in the cab...if anything i will mount them under the cab to the frame...
